The comments shouldn't have been seen as controversial in the first places. He didn't name names, he was talking about how things historically are, and even said it might be just things changing.

Absolutely ridiculous reactions by netizens AGAIN. But it does say something interesting that a certain fandom ASSUMED he was talking about their group.

Imagine being so upset at something without being named. If you felt like his comments we’re referring to your group then maybe you should encourage your group to improve on their manners.
